Alone at a party
She decided she wanted to play a character
Someone to replace the drab her
She had been seeing at home in the mirror
So, armed with the magic elixir of Ancient Age,
She burned away her real personality
And while she made no wise choices that night,
She has no regrets, either
For freedom rings, passion blazes,
Youth must live, and mistakes
Have to be experienced
To drive where I have never been
Without a map or GPS
To find myself on a hidden road
In some forgotten mountain pass
To skirt the bad times of my life
To glide right by my worst mistakes
To speed to reach my ego’s height
To race downhill without my brakes
To have my thoughts, just like the road
Twist high and low and round and round
To go to where there are no signs
To find whatever can be found
